Thank you!! Her ligaments do feel like they are more loose but still there. She's also got some crusty stuff goin on, should I try to clean that? I feel bad, she's got gnats all over her business.
I was really hoping she would kid today but I'm guessing she is gonna wait until I go to work in the morning. Think I might give her a pep talk "no pressure but if you could go ahead and pop that thing out, I won't have to stress all day tomorrow. .."

Not a whole lot of change, ligaments feel slightly more loose (or is that my imagination??) But her side seems surprisingly bigger today. I did notice about half an hour ago she was laying down and making a really low grunting type noise, almost sounded like grinding teeth. I'm actually sitting in their pen now to see if she does it again.
Kind of off the point but her sister was bred the same time as her and although I suspected it didn't take, I wasn't sure until today when she tried to mount my poor preggers goat. I didn't want to seperate them because I only have two but I might have to :/

You could separate them where they can see each other. I hope everything goes well, and you have a healthy baby (or babies)!
Keep us updated. :pop

Still no babies! :barnie And it's been raining all day so she is staying in her shelter, which was not built for humans. I can get in there but it's less than 4ft tall so I have to practically crawl into it. We are building a bigger one but didn't get it done in time for babies...
I had a dream last night that she had a boy and a girl, today, wonder if that was a premonition or wishful thinking. I also had a dream the other day that the first one was upside down, but came out perfectly fine with a tug of the legs. Weird, huh?
